Gerry Anderson told fan site Fanderson that he will produce a new TV series based on Thunderbirds, the cult “Supermarionation” UK series from the sixties. While not as big in the U.S. as it was in the UK, the series has a following worldwide.
Anderson reportedly told the BBC, "I don't want to sound conceited, but because I'm going to make it...I'm confident that it will be a smash hit!"
